Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message APJ_RT060 - Job &1 must not be periodic. Report incident on component BC-SRV-APS-APJ. ?

  The SAP error message APJ_RT060 indicates that a job (in this case, identified as &1) is being defined or scheduled as a periodic job, but the system does not allow this for the specific job type or context you are working with. This error typically arises in the context of job scheduling within the SAP system, particularly when using the Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) component.
  Cause:
  
  Job Type Restrictions: The job you are trying to schedule may not support periodic execution. Certain jobs in SAP are designed to run only once or under specific conditions and cannot be set to run at regular intervals.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that restrict the job from being periodic.
  Incorrect Job Definition: The job may have been incorrectly defined or set up, leading the system to interpret it as a periodic job when it should not be.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Job Definition: Review the job definition in the SAP system. Ensure that it is not set to periodic execution if it is not intended to be. You can do this by navigating to the job scheduling area in transaction SM37 or SM36.
  Modify Job Settings: If the job is indeed meant to be a one-time job, modify its settings to reflect that. Remove any periodic scheduling options that may have been inadvertently selected.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for the specific job type you are working with to understand its scheduling capabilities and limitations.
  Contact SAP Support: If you believe the job should be allowed to run periodically, or if you cannot resolve the issue, consider reporting the incident to SAP support with the component BC-SRV-APS-APJ, as suggested in the error message. Provide them with details about the job and the context in which the error occurred.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SM37 (Job Monitoring) and SM36 (Job Scheduling) to manage and troubleshoot jobs.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to job scheduling and the specific error message. SAP Notes often contain patches, workarounds, or additional information that can help resolve issues.
  System Logs: Review system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context about the issue.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
